Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Kayla Quenzer #32241 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Steady Pace, Strong Finish Through Downtown Boulder Kayla Quenzer completed the 2026 Boulderthon 10K in 1:02:40, an overall pace of 10:06 per mile. Her race unfolded in two distinct halves: a brisk opening 9:35 pace through the first two miles, followed by a slight dip near the midpoint before rallying with a strong 9:35 mile five. Mile five stood out as her fastest full-mile stretch of the race, showing good composure in the back half of the course. Quenzer's overall pace of just over 10 minutes per mile was solid, especially considering the finish came at altitude, with Boulder sitting above 5,000 feet. The race finished on the historic Pearl Street Mall in downtown Boulder, a fitting close to a well-paced effort. Consistency between miles one and two suggests a good foundation for future pacing strategy.
